Matt’s Car Care Tip
BE WINTER ROAD TRIP READY With the rst snow covered or icy road drive this fall, drivers are quickly reminded of the dangers of winter driving. All Season tires and Summer tires become rigid in cold temperatures whereas winter tires are made from a different rubber compound that stays pliable in the cold. Winter tires, when installed in a set of 4, improve braking and maneuverability on cold and icy road surfaces. Laws that require winter tires in Germany and Quebec quickly proved well founded; winter collision rates dropped noticeably in those areas. Winter tires are an additional upfront expense you may wish to avoid, but, the cost savings of driving on all season tires (especially older, worn ones) may be quickly offset by sliding into a curb (and damaging your car) or having a small "fender bender" accident on a slippery road surface. The most valuable facet of winter tires is that they keep you, your family, and other motorists safer in the winter. If you are in the market for winter tires stop in and see us, we have many different options for different budgets and will help you choose the right tires for your vehicle. Make sure that you have good tires (preferably snow tires) properly inflated with lots of tread. Check your wiper blades and fill up your washer fluid (sometimes the low-level warning light only comes on when you are virtually out of fluid). Use a good quality washer fluid with a -40 or lower freeze rating. Check your oil and other engine compartment fluid levels. Make sure that your battery is strong enough to start your car in the cold. If you notice hesitation or slow starting in the cooler weather this could mean your battery is ready for replacement. Driver fatigue is a large cause of accidents, driving in low visibility and inclement weather is very stressful and demands extra attention. Take lots of breaks, stay alert and leave extra time to travel in case you run into slowdowns. An emergency kit with a blanket, a first aid kit and some granola bars are always great things to keep in the car. One of the most important things you can do is to clear all the snow off your car completely; large chunks of snow and ice are hazardous when flying off the roof of your car at highway speeds posing safety risks to everyone around you. Did you know that we will also install your existing winter, give us a call or hop onto our website to make an appointment today! Safe Driving As always, if you are heading out on a winter trip and want to make sure your car is ready for the road, give us a call and we can check your fluid levels, tires and battery for you! Safe travels! Going on a road trip out of town this winter? Make sure your car is up to the challenge! Winter driving presents certain challenges to both our cars and to us, as drivers. Before you pack up the car for a trip to Mont Tremblant or a weekend in Blue Mountain, ensure you and your vehicle are ready.
